The Kettering Bug

This full-scale, flyable replica was first showcased at the AMA Expo in 2015.

The background and technical details of the Kettering Bug were meticulously researched by the Aero Telemetry team for historical accuracy and re-designed with many of the same materials and techniques that were used to build the original. We discovered many amazing technical and historical details about the original plane and its builders during the project.

Built in 1918, the Kettering Bug was an experimental unmanned aerial torpedo. It was America's first production "drone".
